Dumb luck! There was another Clark Kent at the annual costume contest over lunch! I thought he was just a nerd until he said who he was supposed to be. Didn't even have a Superman shirt on underneath. My friends told me I was the better Clark Kent, but that was probably to stop me from crying.

When you're ten years old and a car drives by and splashes a puddle of water all over you, it's hard to decide if you should go to school like that or try to go home and change and probably be late. So while he was trying to decide, I drove by and splashed him again. - Jack Handey

And, yeah, Wayner, Homer was there. He even brought a bottle of Duff beer. The winner was a guy on my team. He had a HUGE afro and wild 60's clothes. When the MC handed the mike to him, he said, "Hendrix rules! Punk sucks!" This guy is so quiet most of the time. I was dying. When he won, he came up real slowly and said, "Far out, man." So funny.

I made good use of my time at the front of the room. There was a woman dressed up as a southern belle beside me. Being the smooth operator that I am, I struck up a conversation with her: "Tell me about yourself."

Yeah, whatever... I didn't go anywhere
Paulie, your day sounds like it was fun!
Wayner... did you dress up? A hockey player maybe?
My oldest son, at the last minute, decided to go as a marathon runner to school. We made a cheesy "number" thing to pin to his shirt and he wrapped himsef up in one of those sliver warming blanket things that the Marathon runners get after the run. It was an official one from the Marine Corps Marathon, but most people thought he was trying to be a baked potato !
He's saving it for next year and going as....... a baked potato
